Today marks one of the biggest days in Andover New Street’s history as they take on Fareham Town in the Wessex Premier League Play-Off Final. The match, kicking off at 3pm at Cams Alders, will decide who joins AFC Portchester in earning promotion to Step 4 of the English football pyramid.
New Street secured their place in the final with a dramatic 4-3 penalty shootout victory over AFC Stoneham after a tense 1-1 draw in normal time. The game was the second leg after they drew 2-2 at Foxcotte Park. It was a moment that summed up their resilience, determination, and team spirit — qualities that have defined their remarkable season.
Led by manager Jamie Coleman and his dedicated coaching team, New Street have enjoyed a campaign to remember. Not only have they thrilled fans with a push for promotion, but they also embarked on a historic FA Vase run that saw them come within one game of walking out at Wembley. The club’s exploits have captured the imagination of the local community, with huge crowds turning out in support week after week.
As they head into today’s final, New Street will need every ounce of that support as they face a tough Fareham Town side on their home turf. But with momentum, belief, and a season of unforgettable moments behind them, Jamie Coleman’s men will be confident they can rise to the occasion once again.
